Paris is to increase the number of protected cycleways in the city as well as boost bicycle parking spaces, reveals the 2021-2026 cycling plan published October 21 and billed as Plan Velo: Act 2. Plan Velo is the existing $174 million cycling plan which has been getting bolder and bolder with each update. The desire is to make the French capital into a “100% cyclable city.” The latest plan includes the creation of extra facilities for cyclists, such as parking stands for bicycles and promises to maintain cycleways with cleaning and snow removal. Cycle parking will be significantly increased at the same time as car parking spaces are removed.
